Hello Matthew,

Are you planning to support the latest CodeGear (Borland) compiler? The compiler
version number is 5.92 and it comes with C++Builder 2007 Update 3.

If so, do you have an estimated time frame?

Best regards,
Eduardo


PS: Congratulations for you great work on the open source libraries and excellent
books. I have learned a LOT from Imperfect C++ and I can't thank you enough.

I have been programming C++ since I was 20 years old, now I'm 43 and every time
I think I know something I come to the conclusion that I have much to learn. And
thanks to people like you I can still follow my learning path.

Now I'm currently reading Extended STL Vol. 1 and I'm enjoying every chapter :-)

Yes, indeed. Just having problems getting the thing installed.

Hopefully this week.

That's totally great! Thanks for saying so. Comments like this make it all worth the effort. (Bob knows it's not for the money! ;-)

I'm currently working on what I hope will be my best book, Breaking Up The Monolith. Hopefully you might like that one also. :-)

Got it installed now, and have got some way. Currently got a bucketload of compiler warnings and errors. Ho-hum, such is life with Borland C++. ;-)

kewl so, I'm not the only one looking for latest borland compiler support! yay!

Anyway, any idea what most of those errors have to do with? Is it a quirk in the dinkumware library? wierd template usage the compiler is choking on? etc.

Thanks for making stlsoft work with borland btw! really appreciate and looking forward to next release.

Hi Matthew,

I'm looking forward to have this one on my bookshelf together with Volume 2
of Extended STL.

Imperfect C++ is one of my favorite books together with some books from Herb
and Scott. It's the kind of
book that I find myself always reading again and again. A real gem of useful
information and insight.

After finish reading Extended STL I will come back to Imperfect C++ and read
it all over again. There are some
concepts that are fading from my memory :-).

You should really be proud of yourself, you're a GREAT author and software
developer.

My best regards,
Eduardo

You're too kind. <g>

It'd be great if you could post these comments on amazon.com/.co.uk/.de/whatever. All such comments help the sales along. :-)
